wish of the president and of TIE members of
both houses Of cOngre IS to avoid the neces-

is entertained to day that matters IN reFpect
TO the appropriation bills are rapidly drift

already reached it, which makes a CALI q SEES

Senator Allison says that in al his service
In both houses he has never known such a
state of DackWardn5ss IN regard to the ap-
preparation bills, and for this condition Of
thugs he declares that neither the senate
or its committee on appropriations is in any

Senator Beck, member OF the senate sp-
preparation committee, declares 1t is his be-
lief that IL viii be impossible during the re-
naming days of this session to fish the
